VH1's BLACK INK CREW Returns 1/26

VH1 is heading back to famed Harlem tattoo parlor Black Ink with the series premiere of "Black Ink Crew" on Monday, January 26 at 9PM ET/PT. The gang is all back together for season three. With friendships rekindled and a chance for new beginnings, will this new found truce last?

Ceaser, Dutchess, Puma, Sassy, O'Sh*t, Sky, Ted and Walt are ready to overcome their differences and move on stronger than ever, but the past has a way of providing a serious reality check. As Ceaser focuses on expanding the Black Ink brand and renovating the shop, O'Sh*t has an open trial looming in the distance and another new baby on the way. Dutchess is focusing on herself after her break up with Ceaser by creating amazing tattoos and growing her reputation in the modeling world. Puma and Sassy continue to work to build rival tattoo shop, Ink 124. Ted, Walt and Sky bring their signature shenanigans to the shop with plenty of laughs and larger-than-life personalities.

The doors of Black Ink welcome a new apprentice, Donna, and while it's never easy to be the new girl, she quickly proves she isn't afraid to speak her mind and get her ink on. When a "Mixxy" party takes a turn for the worse, the crew finds themselves in a dangerous feud that could put an end to the Black Ink world forever. Watch it unfold in the season premiere of VH1's "Black Ink Crew" Monday, January 26 at 9PM*.
